Description
Book SynopsisWhile mandatory retirement has been eliminated in the US, a myriad of policies and practices have an impact on an older worker's decision to work or retire and an employer's decision to retain and train an older worker. Teresa Ghilarducci and John Turner address many of the issues considered on a daily basis by employees and employers.
Trade Review“This conference volume is a collection of 11 articles that examine the economic and labor-relations aspects of an aging workforce in the United States. While the articles span a variety of topics, the underlying question throughout the book is: given the inevitability of demographic changes, how can we make the continued labor force participation of older works a positive experience for both employers and employees? This book considers a variety of policy options that may encourage or facilitate work at older ages. Those interested in issues surrounding employment and older workers will find the collection of interest.” —
